When Seth McLaughlin arrived at Ohio State from Alabama in January, he knew he was stepping into one of the tighter fraternities in college, the offensive line room. Fitting in as fast as possible was his goal, not slamming his way through the door and declaring himself the kingpin, considering he had started for the Crimson Tide the previous two seasons. The meld method worked. Days away from his first start for the Buckeyes in the season opener with Akron on Saturday, he considers himself to be just one of the guys, a collegial feel considered vital for superior offensive line play.
